Question

Find at least ten solutions to the linear equation 1/2x + y = 5, and plot the points on a coordinate plane. What shape is the graph of the linear equation taking?

Answer 1

Answer:

A linear line downwards

Step-by-step explanation:

You change the equation to y = 5 - 1/2x and as x increases, y becomes a smaller number, making the line go downwards as x increases (so it kinda looks like a \ on a graph). To find 10 solutions, just plug in values for x and make coords, ie (1, 4.5) from y = 5 - 1/2.
